Accessing public capital markets - whether through an IPO, bond issuance, or private placement - requires precise coordination of regulatory, legal, and commercial workstreams. We advise issuers, underwriters, and institutional investors on the structuring and execution of equity and debt offerings, ensuring compliance with the Prospectus Regulation, Market Abuse Regulation, and applicable exchange rules.
We prepare and review prospectuses, offering circulars, and final terms for equity IPOs, follow-on offerings, bond issuances, and structured products, managing the approval process with the competent authority.
Post-listing, we advise on continuous-disclosure obligations, inside-information handling under MAR, and the preparation of ad-hoc announcements, insider lists, and PDMR-transaction notifications.
